Wow. On top of things as usual! Nicely done.

This could be used for making quick menus:
1. Use OpenOffice/PPT Slide to design a menu mockup, then make a pdf of it.
2. Use Acrobat 6 Pro's advanced editing to make hotspot url links with the
code you provided.
3. Convert with pdf2swf and you have a simple menu.

Very cool.
